I liked very much that the property is directly on a clean, quiet and beautiful beach. The property was quiet and clean and well-maintained. Cleaning the room should be improved. The shower had hair on its floor from the previous client. There is a serious ant infestation in the kitchen. The kitchen dinining room seats were ripped off and taped - unacceptable!

Excellent stay! room was quiet and clean and has great beach access! After being on other beaches in St Croix this one is right at the top. Air conditioning was great but when you want to turn it off, the windows open to hear the surf.

Cottages’ location is superb! It’s saying a lot when locals come and use the the beaches on this side of the island. I love the quaint property and its charm. Opening your door and walking 10 steps to a beyond gorgeous beach is literal heaven…. (From a beach lover) I will most definitely be back to this slice of paradise.

This is a great place to stay on a family vacation. The property is literally on the beach. You can access the beach at anytime. The staff are friendly and extremely helpful, especially Kate and Kishma. The units have a kitchen which is a definite plus. I would recommend staying here and will definitely be returning. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Nice. Could have been much better.

Place was nice and friendly, although very dated. It had the essentials, a television, air conditioning and a kitchen which was great. If you're looking for some place fancy with a lot of luxury, this is not the place. Many things are rundown unfortunate because it's a very nice location.
